Fluke 1550C 5 kV Insulation Tester

The Fluke 1550C insulation resistance tester offers digital insulation testing up to 5 kV, making them ideal for testing a wide range of high voltage equipment including switchgear, motors, generators and cables.

Fluke insulation testers can now conduct the entire range of test voltages specified in IEEE 43-2000 with a best in class, 3 year warranty and CAT IV 600 V safety rating. With measurement storage and PC interface, the 1550C is the perfect tool for preventative or predictive maintenance programs designed to identify potential equipment failures before they occur.

Features include:

Test voltages to up 5 kV and save time by trending on the spot only with Fluke Connect™

CAT III 1000 V, CAT IV 600 V safety rating

Warning function alerts the user that line voltage is present and gives the voltage reading up to 600 V AC or DC for increased user safety

Guard system eliminates the effect of surface leakage current on high-resistance measurements

Large digital/analog LCD for easy viewing

Capacitance and leakage current measurement

Ramp function for breakdown testing

Resistance measurements up to 2 TΩ

Timer settings up to 99 minutes for timed tests

3-year warranty

Electrical Specifications

The tester's accuracy is specified for one year after calibration at operating temperatures of 0°C to 35°C. For operating temperatures outside the range (-20°C to 0°C and 35°C to 50°C), add ± .25% per °C, except on the 20% bands add ± 1% per °C.

This Class II (double insulated) instrument is supplied with a Class 1 (grounded) power cord. The protective earth terminal (ground pin) is not connected internally. The extra pin is for added plug retention only.
